LSG vs SRH Ekana Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:
The pitch at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow has played differently on various occasions, which makes the nature of the surface hard to predict.
Having said that, the wicket has been on the slower side with a low bounce in the ongoing season, and batters had to rely upon traditional cricketing shots to score runs.
The pitch is expected to remain the same for the upcoming game between the home team LSG and former champions SRH, which might play in favor of the Super Giants.
The Rishabh Pant-led side is in desperate need of a win, having won five and lost six games in the tournament so far.
Dew is expected to play a major role in deciding the outcome of the game, and the team that wins the toss will choose to bowl first.
Ekana hasn't been a high-scoring ground, which is evident by the fact that the average first-innings total at this venue is 167.
The above-mentioned stat reiterates the fact that the team that bats first will have to score somewhere between 180-190 runs to win the game, taking into account the effect of dew.
LSG will have to win their remaining three matches to make a case for a place in the playoffs, having missed out on doing so last season.
A total of 19 IPL games have been played at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, which is situated in Uttar Pradesh's capital, Lucknow.
Out of the 19 games, the team batting first has won 8 matches, while the chasing team has won 10 games.
The highest successful chase at this ground is 199/3 by the Rajasthan Royals against the Lucknow Super Giants in 2024.
Both teams will look to register a win in the upcoming game, where they will take on each other at the home ground of LSG.
Conclusion
LSG would like to solidify their hopes of clinching a playoff spot for the first time after 2023 by winning the remaining games and starting by getting the better of an already depleted Sunrisers Hyderabad.
SRH, on the other hand, would hope to end the season on a positive note by registering a win against the Lucknow Super Giants and spoiling the party of the home team.
